The Rest Goes on the Plate

The biggest berry in the world. Everything here revolves around the pumpkin, the largest berry in the world. Pumpkin soothes and nourishes the skin, and the leftovers from making cosmetics become tasty, healthy dishes, true to the motto: nothing is wasted, everything is used.

The first part of the book offers an insight into the varied world of pumpkins, briefly presenting the most important varieties, with valuable tips on growing them in your own garden. The second part presents pairs of recipes for beauty and for the kitchen: each recipe for the skin is combined with a delicious culinary recipe.
